Established over 30 years ago, Prophet is the leading software provider for the fresh food and horticultural industry, with extensive experience in fresh and chilled perishable produce. Founded in the 1980s, the company was established to provide inventory control and inventory accounting systems to:

• Wholesalers who handled products from local and foreign growers that required a grower return once the sales were completed.

• Fresh Produce retailers who needed to know how they were making the money every day on what they sold when they purchased product from so many wholesalers at different costs.

These foundations provide the basis for all that followed. Through a series of changes in technology and substantial changes in the way that retailing and the Fresh Produce supply chain works to service retailers, Prophet has grown as a team of long established software experts who have taken a deep dive into understanding Fresh Produce. This team works to understand how to adapt the software to the latest technology, to the evolving needs of the supply chain and to judge what changes will make a difference.
